Acrylamide

Novozymes announced the launch of Acrylaway® HighT, the first thermostable solution that reduces acrylamide levels in food products that are typically processed at extremely high temperatures.

Novozymes launches Acrylaway (asparaginase) to reduce acrylamide which is formed when starchy foods are baked, fried or toasted at high temperatures. Acrylamide is under suspicion of causing cancer.
